Politics and the Spiritual World in Transcendental Philosophy

This paper has been written in order to comprehend the Islamic sciences of the humanities and indigenous knowledge. The aim is to benefit from one of the capacities of Islamic philosophy in solving some of the theoretical problems in studying the Islamic sciences and humanities. With this purpose, an endeavor has been made to look into one of these areas, i.e. the spiritual world. The main question of this study is how the spiritual world is related to a study of the field of political sciences. This question has been answered through descriptive and analytical methods. Some of the results which stem from studying the spiritual world, which is an intermediate world between the worlds of senses and reason, include: explaining the relationship between prophecy and politics, justifying the continuation of divine leadership during the period of occultation, justifying the existence of a community, removing duality from ethics and politics, mysticism and politics, etc. The present work is a theoretical study and it has some implications for the same area.
